Event

[Aguiar Costa]

Hi,
How or when are events produced ? What i want to know is if we can create
and trigger an event in our code. Or events are only triggered by windows ?
TIA.
Aguiar !!!

Some of the most importants events are described here:

There are 2 types of events:
- windows events: are windows messages that are received by the Xailer's
kernel and send to the proper object via WM????? methods
- Xailer's events: are similar to any other object method, but they can be
assigned to each object individualy. See the chapter "Object oriented
programming" in the help file
And, of course, you can create your own events and use them in your own
classes.

That is my case...I build a class and want to create my own event to be used
by another programmer. How do i trigger that event ?? If i have a class that
creates 4 buttons in a form using some ShowButtons() method and i want an
event to be triggred after these 4 buttons are created (afeter calling
ShowButtons()), what should i do ?
It would be nice if you could show me a little code sample (it does not have
to really work), so that i can understand how to create my own events.
Thank you.

Aguiar !!!
